Typesense for mongo with 3.5million items
I have Typesense running but I'm having issues with searching for something like "culvers burger".
`http://localhost:8080/api/search?q=culvers%20burger`
It will show me a bunch of results for Culver's but none of those results have the word "burger" in them. In fact, it's almost like it got rid of those results altogether. I thought this would have been more plug-n-play, or, better yet, that I would be smart enough to figure this out within 8 hours.
Here are the search parameters I'm using:
const searchParameters = { q: q, query_by: 'search_blob', infix: 'always', pre_segmented_query: true, num_typos: 2, typo_tokens_threshold: 1, drop_tokens_threshold: 0, split_join_tokens: 'always', exhaustive_search: true, prioritize_exact_match: true, sort_by: '_text_match:desc' }
And I'm importing them like:
await typesense.collections().create({ name: 'products', fields: [ { name: 'code', type: 'string' }, { name: 'product_name', type: 'string', optional: false, index: true, infix: true }, { name: 'generic_name', type: 'string', optional: true, index: true, infix: true }, { name: 'brands', type: 'string', optional: true, index: true, infix: true }, { name: 'search_blob', type: 'string', infix: true }
] })
and
const item = { id: doc.code, code: doc.code, product_name: doc.product_name, generic_name: doc.generic_name ?? '', brands: doc.brands ?? '', search_blob: `${doc.product_name ?? ''} ${doc.generic_name ?? ''} ${doc.brands ?? ''}`.toLowerCase() }
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or how I could improve my search. Any ideas would be appreciated.
